Hate hate hate!
“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book has been rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered…History has stopped. Nothing exists except the endless present in which the party is always right” — George Orwell
We’ve been keeping an eye on the insanity oozing out of the States over the last week. Not surprisingly, Oliver Stone has produced one of the most succinct, on-point commentaries about Charlottesville and the resulting madness.
Sorry, but we just don’t buy this idea that fighting (apparently to the death) over Confederate statues is a top priority for most Americans right now. No doubt it serves as a convenient and extremely lame ideological battle for weirdos on the far, far right and far, far left to salivate over. Meanwhile, the military-industrial security state is celebrating with hooker-and-champagne bubble baths as new excuses are created to gut the Bill of Rights and pit debt slaves who want to have a beer with Hillary Clinton against debt slaves who want to have a beer with Donald Trump.
“So it goes”.
“You are all trying to get to Trump every day, but there is a bigger problem,” the filmmaker said when asked what he thought of President Trump’s initial failure to call out white supremacists in his response to the Charlottesville events.
“There is a system [in America], and that system existed before Trump,” Stone said. “Putin said this is the fourth [U.S.] president where nothing has changed. There is a deep state, a military industrial security state. … It is the system that has to be challenged. [Trump] is part of that system.”
He reiterated: “It is the system that has to be challenged. That takes work and is never as exciting as talking about some lunatic president.”
Visibly more comfortable taking questions on Snowden, a dramatization of the story of NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden, than talking about current events, Stone added that the situation in the U.S. today was scarily close to the kind of world George Orwell wrote about in his futuristic novel 1984.
“1984 is here. We are there. The only thing they have not yet done is to erase history … there are still people who remember things,” he said. “One week it is terrorism [that dominates the headlines], the next week Putin and the next Korea.”
It was, Stone said, “just like Hate Week in 1984, where the name of the country and the face of the leader changes halfway through a rally. They are doing it now and getting away with it.”

Stone added that he had learned a lot from the Russian leader about how the “geopolitical balance” works in the world.

Exactly. One need only look at the not-yet-censured history of US abandonment of POWs in Vietnam and elsewhere to understand how deep is the disconnect between what we pay attention to and what we need to pay attention to:

I have to disagree with Stone when he says this is the fourth president where nothing has changed. What has changed is the deep state has gone into high gear (since 9/11), which has caused a continuing but steeper disconnect between the “government” and the people. They still like to pretend that the people have some sort of influence, but elections are rigged and any reaction to “constituents” by our “representatives” is completely superficial. What’s happened is that corporations, the puppet masters, and their partners (the deep state) have fully merged. They’ve created one false flag after another railroading and murdering their patsies so that prisons are now full of them and they’re continuing to ramp up the war machine around the world. So, to my way of thinking, plenty has happened. It’s all been bad though, and that may have been the point of Stone’s comment. Perhaps he meant that nothing has changed in a positive direction. If that were the case, I would have to agree.

The comment I left earlier vanished and I cant remember it all to type it again.
I too have had feelings of pessimism, on Trump, and the state of our world, and feeling like its all sewn up and everythings a done deal. However I think, things would be a lot worse now, since 2001, had these bad people in the world been unopposed.
On the surface it mught seem depressing, the Deep State doing all theyre doing, but there might be positive groups, secret societies, doing many things but the battles are unseen. I think both good and bad factions might have advanced technologies, and this earth is being stabilised geologically and weathwerwise, as much as possible, by the good people.
As well, theres the very real possibility, things are being helped massively, just beyond our perceptions, in other realms.
Trumps jewish and deep state background did make me very pessimistic earlier this year. But the people called Anonymous Patriots with AIM4Truth blog, are very intelligent people and must know something I don’t. They have unwavering faith that Trump is acting for good in the face of tremendous odds. So I think APs position, gives cause for some optimism.
As well, people like Robert David Steele surely must indicate there are good people within the deep state, that have powerful connections and are doing good things.
Its always darkest before the dawn, and I’m not one for looking for false hope where theres none, I’m too musch of a realist for that. But if there wasn’t some form of counterbalancing power of good, I think things would be very much worse now in 2017.
As well, apparently its a physics truth of manifestational reality physics. That what we attach our subconscious minds to, attaches to one of the infinite versions of timelines out in hyperspace, and connects with and draws it to us. I think this ‘trick’ of physics reality is well known by good and bad secret groups. I think there could be, and has been , a battle for the subconscious minds of humanity to pull the timeline that manifests for the world in a good or evil direction. So I’m hoping and betting that good things are coming for us all!
